Lyrics Teena Marie

Teena Marie

Work It

It's not the way that you comb your hair to the left side, sugar

It's not the way that you keep the beat

On or off your feet

No mention when we get real close

How my body gets weak, and I'm about to smoke

Do-wa, do-wa, do-wa

All these things that I feel

If you'd only come real

At this moment in time

Right here, right now, you'd be mine

Work it, work it baby, baby can you work

Can you work it like a 9 to 5, child

Work it, I'm talking overtime

Baby, can you work it

Can you work the night shift

It's not the way that you talk that stuff

To my left ear, honey

It's not the way that you take a chance

When you do your dance

No mention you'd be on the scene

And you drive my car

And you gangster lean, do-wa, do-wa, do-wa

All these things that I feel

If you only come real

At this moment in time

Right here, right now, you'd be mine

Work it, work it baby, baby can you work

Can you work it love child

Work it, I'm talking overtime

Baby, can you work it, work it

Can you work the night shift, child

It's not the way that you're right by my side

Or the way that you smooth out the ride

It's not the way that you keep the beat

On or off your feet

It's not the way that you always come through

When you know what to do for my high

It's not the way you break the law

When you do-wa-wa

Work it, can you work it love child

Work it, can you work overtime, all right

Work it, can you work it like a 9 to 5, child

Work it, baby can you work it

Work it, work it baby
